4. Close your computer case and reconnect the power source.

2.3. Initializing and Formatting the SSD

After physical installation, the SSD needs to be initialized and formatted for use by your operating system. The steps may vary slightly depending on your OS (Windows, Linux, macOS).

„Windows“:

1. Paleiskite kompiuterį.
2. Dešiniuoju pelės mygtuku spustelėkite mygtuką „Pradėti“ ir pasirinkite „Disko valdymas“.
3. You should see the new SSD listed as "Unallocated" or "Not Initialized". Right-click on it and select "Initialize Disk".
4. Choose MBR (Master Boot Record) or GPT (GUID Partition Table). GPT is recommended for drives larger than 2TB and modern UEFI systems.
5. After initialization, right-click on the "Unallocated" space and select "New Simple Volume". Follow the wizard to create a new partition and format it (NTFS is standard for Windows).

„Linux“:

Naudokite tokius įrankius kaip GParted or command-line utilities like fdisk / išsiskyrė to partition and format the drive (e.g., ext4 filesistema).

„MacOS“:

Naudokite Disko paslaugų programa to erase and format the drive (e.g., APFS or HFS+ filesistema).

3. Operacija

Once installed and formatted, your KingSpec NVMe SSD will function as a standard storage device. You can install your operating system, applications, and store data on it. For optimal performance, it is recommended to install your operating system on the NVMe SSD.
